This hotel is right next to the St.Jacob's market which is a prime area, and just minutes from downtown Waterloo. It's very modern with great decor and rooms are spacious. The front desk staff were very friendly, there was always a few there so we were always taken care of without waiting.

On a business trip we were welcomed with a nice package of goodies from the hotel. I always notice smells in hotels and I told my husband right away how great the hallways smelled, not like a stuffy/smoky hotel it was great!

The only concern we had was that 8:30 in the morning we heard cleaning staff in the hallways calling out to another, and then they came to knock on our door. We were really hoping to sleep in as we had a long weekend ahead of us but it was interrupted. I inquired at front desk and they were so kind about it. We really didn't complain but just wanted to inquire and inform them of what happened. Later we received a written apology on a card along with a voucher for a meal there which was a nice surprise and extra touch. It did however state that next time we should put a note on the door to not be disturbed, but I really don't think guests should have to think about that for fear of someone knocking on their door so early. Friends who stayed the same night said workers actually walked INTO their room before 9:00am which I thought was a bit concerning but she was already awake so didn't mind.

Despite their kind gesture my husband and I didn't stay longer than one night so sadly we couldn't use the voucher, but will definitely stay again and recommend others.

Room Tip: Just make sure you put DO NOT DISTURB on your door if you don't want to be woken up early!

We stayed in a king suite and were very impressed by the room. Very comfortable. Lots of space, nice sitting area. Only downfall was the spa tub - the bottom was peeling very badly. Otherwise a very nice room.

This was my first stay at the hotel and I must say this will not be our last time. I was blown away by the fantastic condition of the hotel and service. During our check in Stephanie was extremely helpful and went up and beyond helping us out with our million and one questions.

The room was clean, nice decor, and comfortable. The set up of the television in relation to the bed was poor. The odd angle only allowed me to see part of the screen. The night stands were very small and cramped. Not much room to get in and out of one side of the bed and on the other side you stood into the hallway of the room. My advice is to put the headboard against the longest wall instead of the shortest.

For the price, there is no pool or hot tub in this hotel and breakfast is not included either. (As it is at most other hotels).

Nice stay but will probably not return.

My wife and I have stayed here a few times now. We returned because it is a great location.Minutes from bueatiful Waterloo, Ontario this area has a lot to offer. The room was well spaced out and very clean. Modern make up of rooms and inviting lobby were attractive. The cafe boasts a StarBucks and nicely kept booths to enjoy a light meal. Location is extremely close to St. Jacobs and right across the street from the St. Jacobs Market.

great trip to waterloo. New hotels in area but this hotel is still the best. I love the new restaurant concept. The grab and go concept is good. The gym is very good. The playhouse theater next door is good if you have an evening free

Room Tip: I got the room facing front on 3rd floor. Good size room
